John Edwards mentions John McCain's adulterous affair
"This story of media selectivity has become the poster child for the
biased MSM. How on earth can they devote endless time to non-candidate
Edwards and ignore candidate McCain's very real adultery? HOW? HOW?
HOW? Even McSame supporters will recognize this disparity and should
question the entire McSame candidacy."

...Get ready for the media to suddenly discover that reporting on
adultery is ugly and inappropriate, now that Saint McCain's adulterous
affair with Cindy has been mentioned by a national political figure. I
can't wait for all the false outrage. This will be a lesson in how
noise machines actually work - first the GOP will go crazy in order to
ensure that no one talks about how McCain and Cindy cheated on his
first wife, then the media will join in and tut-tut about how sad it
is that anyone would attack McCain, blah blah. Get ready for it.
...The flip side is that the media may decide not to mention this at
all. Sure, it's on Ben Smith's blog, but what are the networks and the
newspapers to do now that part of Edwards' defense is John and Cindy
McCain's own adulterous affair? How does the media avoid writing about
McCain's adultery now that they're all certainly writing about
Edwards'? Oh, just watch them. And big surprise, the big AP story is
in and... no mention of John McCain's adulterous affair even though
Edwards having invoked McCain now makes this news. Nothing on CNN
either. Do me a favor, keep searching the news all day and let me know
what networks, and what written media, do and don't mention John
McCain having cheated on his first wife, and the fact that Edwards
invoked McCain's affairs.

• John Edwards, the now admitted adulterer, is an ego-centric phony
who might have thrown his whole party down the drain with him had he
won the Democratic nomination for the presidency. Thankfully he did
not. Currently, he is rightly being run through the ringer by the
media, the blogosphere and former supporters.
• But, John McCain is also a phony, lying serial philanderer, AND HE
IS THE GOP's NOMINEE, yet the media somehow doesn't seem to care to
pursue this story, or call him to task for his behavior.
• Do you think that if Barack Obama was a chronic cheater and a liar
that the media would let the story go? Puh-lease... of course not.
What is the lesson? I'll let you figure it out...

With all this griping about Edwards, it's time to ask why McCain's
political career isn't suffering for his adulterous affairs.

The John Edwards Story Invites Us to Seek Out the Skeletons In
Republican Closets

Is this another skeleton in the Democratic closet that Barack
Obama must struggle to overcome?" David Gregory on the revelation of
John Edwards' extramarital affair.
OK, so now we know the new ground rules. The private life of John
Edwards, who currently neither seeks nor holds public office, is a
legitimate story for mainstream media because he was a hypocrite and
because he lied.

When laws are broken, somebody's got to be punished. In the case of
Cindy McCain, that somebody is Tom Gosinski
By Amy Silverman, Jeremy Voas
Published on September 08, 1994
My conservative grandparents are churning in their graves. They were
big Reagan supporters. Remember, McCain was BIG SCUM!
What happened to Tom Gosinski is worse then Cindy McCain's addictions
and illicit sex et al. Like it or not criminal character does matter.
Don't worry about the left, it's the disgusted right you need to
explain the McCain's weak character to.
